[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know. I mean why don’t any of us rebel? We are just passing time till we lose our own organs one by one. In my view it was saying something quite deep about the human condition.[/quote] This is one of my favorite books and I read it in grad school. We talked quite a bit about this -- about how people accept fates that are arguably worse than that of those in this book. Especially when conditioned to accept their position. Unfortunately there are many enslaved persons in the world today, who accept their position to the extent that they don't run away or fight. It is troubling -- that such a fate can be accepted, and that such a fate can be imposed. But human beings live through -- they still feel, they still connect. No matter what. There is a lot to think about and talk about with this book. [/quote]
